Crowned with the Richard Jefferies Society and White Horse Book Shop Literary Prize, this 'splendid' (Guardian) and 'visionary' (New Statesman) tome unveils a startling truth: Britain's vast expanses are ripe for an extraordinary wildlife renaissance. Contrary to popular belief, a mere six percent of our nation is developed, whilst swathes of our countryside lie fallow, presenting a golden opportunity for both fauna and employment.
In 'Rebirding: Restoring Britain's Wildlife', Benedict Macdonald presents a compelling case for a dramatic shift in our approach to conservation. With razor-sharp wit and meticulous attention to detail, Macdonald unravels the complexities of rewilding, species reintroduction, and rural job creation, painting a vivid picture of a thriving, biodiverse Britain.
This masterful manifesto, lauded by conservationists and landowners alike, charts a bold course towards a harmonious coexistence of nature and humanity. It's high time, Macdonald argues with infectious enthusiasm, to orchestrate a grand reversal of fortune for our long-neglected wildlife and rural communities.
